how to adjust the duration of the photos in the capcut

To adjust photo duration in CapCut, open Menu or Settings , go to Edit , then change Image Duration or Photo Duration to the length you want and save it. After that, any new photo you import should use the new default duration.

Quick steps

1. Open CapCut.
2. Go to Menu or Settings.
3. Choose Edit.
4. Find Image Duration.
5. Set it to your preferred time, like 2 or 3 seconds.
6. Tap Save.
7. Re-import photos if needed so the new default applies.

For one photo

If you only want to change a single photo, place it on the timeline and drag the edge of the clip longer or shorter. Some versions also let you select the clip and adjust its duration directly.

For all photos

If you want every photo to match, changing the default image duration in settings is the easiest method. CapCut tutorials note that this is often faster and more precise than resizing each clip one by one.

Small tip

CapCut may show duration in seconds or frames , so make sure you pick the unit you actually want before saving.

TL;DR: Use Settings > Edit > Image Duration, set the time, save, and then add your photos again.
